The vintage Toy market is very bouyant at the moment as prices for 1960s - 1980s collectables appear to be still rising as the levels of demand outstrip the supply of quality lots.

Domestic brands such as Palitoy, Airfix, Hornby, Britains, Dinky, Matchbox and Corgi still have a good following, but increasingly the international Mego Corps, Hasbro, Kenner, Galoob, Madelman, Atlantic, CEJ Arbois, LJN & Lego are widely collected as the internet auction platforms make every sale available to a worldwide audience.

Film & TV related action figures including Star Wars, Transformers, Power Rangers, M.A.S.K, Thundercats, 'A' Team, Dungeons & Dragons, Micronauts, Action Man & GI Joe are a selection of the most popular lots as shown by the series of Timed Auctions being sold on behalf of the Late Barry Butcher and Ian Standfast's noteable train collection.
